"I'm devastated for women."

Dave Monk

Available for over a year

The Supreme Court in America has overturned a 50-year-old ruling that legalised abortions. The judgement will transform abortion rights in America, with individual states now able to ban the procedure. Thirteen states already have laws ready to come into effect now that this judgement has been passed. BBC Essex speaks to Rebekah Wallace-Brown, who now lives in Colchester but is originally from Maine in the US and campaigns for women's rights.
